Alternate access methods for the SAIL HGX Nodes

You should be able to access the SAIL nodes via SSH from anywhere with public internet access, using the username and key that was provided to you when we created your account. Normally, this would look like:

ssh -i /path/to/key sean@hgx1.sail.cloud.nesi.nz ssh -i /path/to/key sean@hgx2.sail.cloud.nesi.nz

 

In case there are any network issues and support isn’t immediately available (e.g. after hours), it might be handy to know that you can connect in a similar way using the IP addresses:

ssh -i /path/to/key sean@163.7.177.197 ssh -i /path/to/key sean@163.7.177.128

 

Additionally, there is a jump host available in case there is any issue with the bare metal public networking, at 163.7.177.189

That you should be able to use your same username and key to login with – please submit a support request to support@cloud.nesi.org.nz if you have any issues at all.
